Silo on track

Mark Bliss, executive chef at Silo, 1133 Austin Highway, says plans are on track for the restaurant’s new location to open mid-February. “It’s going to be a sleek, contemporary place” says Bliss. And, it will have twice as much dining space as the Austin Highway store, he says.

Gus Ortiz will be executive chef, with Gary Boatman in the chef de cuisine position at the restaurant. The new location will also bear the name Silo, and is located in the Ventura Plaza at Loop 1604 and Blanco Road, says Bliss.

Bliss will stay at the Austin Highway location and promises more wine dinners as well as food-and-wine pairings from the menu.
